It's the same relay as most autoparts stores sell for their offroad driving lights. You can find them at any O'Reilly in the off road driving lights section.

I found it at radio shack ., I looked online but nothing came up. Just walkin
and ask for one.
Headlights and fogs are AM.com and the hids online prob amazon. They are 8k or 10k not sure. The white gauges came out nice. I'll post piks later.

Here's a tip: take the needles back off and scrape the white paint off the back, they'll glow and be easier to see. Try and leave a polished finish to them.

I'd like that type of glow but with the black backing to it. The white wouldn't work with my car as well as your's. Did you use LED lights for the back?
